A plant will find it easier to flourish in a well tended garden than at the side of a busy motorway. If your work and living space is polluted with physical clutter, electrosmog and if the air you breathe and the water you drink and bathe in is full of contaminants, then you'll have difficulty sustaining a high vibration.
To maintain optimum health and slow the ageing process, you need to be - as far as possible - in a pure, nourishing environment, enjoying deep rejuvenating sleep and plenty of contact with nature's healing energies. The more energy you need to expend processing stress, in the form of physical and emotional toxicity, the less you have available for healing, rejuvenation and growth.
Light and Personal Growth
Enlightenment and illumination are usually considered to be mental and spiritual concepts but there is a physical reality to them as well. Light is at the heart of vitality and personal growth. Whenever we align with our true purpose we quite literally light up. I remember a friend explaining how she'd finally realised her lifelong dream of founding a training college for nutritionists. The light aura around her expanded until it filled the room - she was totally aligned with her vision and totally mesmerising.
We all have this light - if you're sensitive you can see it around someone's body - it's the origin of religious halos. We can expand it by increasing the amount of light in the food we eat, the water we drink, the environment we live in and the thoughts we think, ensuring it's as pure and natural as possible.
As the planet continues its own cleansing path we need to bring in as much light we can to our individual consciousness. That means light-filled water, food and activity. Our daily life, thoughts and relationships need to be authentic, because when we're aligned with who we truly are we bring in more light and radiate that to others. Being authentic also keeps our immune system strong and healthy.
The more we can remove pollution from our environment the easier it is to increase our light. Pollution can be visible, such as airborne particles, water contaminants or food additives as well as invisible, such as harmful electromagnetic fields and the mental and emotional pollution of negative thought patterns and destructive feelings.
Changing the quality of the water you drink and bathe in can be one of the easiest and most important steps you take to support your wellbeing. Water researchers such as Masaru Emoto, Viktor Schauberger and Veda Austin have shown that water has memory and intelligence. It has a consciousness of its own and carries information around the planet and around our body. Veda Austin is currently creating an alphabet of hydroglyphs to enable her to talk to water and ask it questions.
Water makes up 75%-90% of your body and brain. The water you drink affects:
your bloodstream
your brain
your reaction times
your memory
your ability to concentrate - even if you're only 1%c dehydrated your cognitive function is impaired by 5%
your ability to excrete toxic waste
the health of your skin
your ability to digest food comfortably and effectively
your eyesight - 98% of your eyeball is water, you're essentially viewing the world through water
your lungs - 83% of your lungs are water and they're a key organ for excreting toxic waste and absorbing oxygen
The best water is pure, chemical-free, energised and ph balanced with plenty of naturally occurring minerals and has a structure which makes it easy to absorb.
''Since I switched from tap water to this filter jug, I’ve become an evangelist! I love the fresh delicious taste. It was so surprising how different it was and I'm very happy to have made the switch. My whole family are drinking more. Even my skin seems to be enjoying the change. It’s also easy to use and clean.’ Jules, real food champion, Lincolnshire.'
'Love the shower head filter as it removes much of the harmful elements in our water. The water pressure is still great and you want to stay in the shower longer as you know the water is healthier!'
Many of today's chronic health problems are actually symptoms of magnetic field deficiency. Our modern lifestyles can disconnect us from the Earth's stabilising magnetic field. This field is deficient in environments with a lot of metal such as cars, planes and modern buildings, as well as atmospheres full of electrosmog.
Suggestions to increase your exposure to healthy magnetic field include taking regular breaks in nature, particularly woodland. You can also try the Earthing products below.
'The healer must achieve magnetic purity through purity of life. he must attain that dispelling radiance which shows itself in every man when he has linked the centres in the head. When this magentic field is established, the radiation too goes forth.' Esoteric Healing, Alice Bailey
How to Support Deep Sleep
Sleep is also when we tap into our unconscious and and can gain a deep spiritual connection most easily. We're at our most vulnerable when asleep, so it's important that there's as little electrical interference as possible to disrupt our energy field. This means:
Minimal electrical equipment in the bedroom, no computer or TVs and definitely no mobile phones used as alarms next to our heads or dect/digital phone base units which perform regular electronic scans day and night.
If possible turning off sockets at the wall is also helpful.
Avoid metal bed frames and metal mattress springs as these will act like antennas. A wooden bed frame and non metal mattress such as a latex attress is best
Sleep in darkness, Consider blackout curtains and/or an eyemask if you don't already use them

Grounding & Earthing
You sleep best when you're earthed and grounded, which supports the detoxing and relaxing function of sleep. Deep sleep is essential to look good and feel good. It gives us emotional balance because deep REM sleep is when we process emotional experiences, so missing out on this part of the sleep cycle can have serious consequences for our mental, emotional, spiritual and physical health.
You've no doubt noticed how much better you sleep when you've spent time outside. If you're a parent you'll also know the importance of children being able 'let off steam' outdoors (for your sanity and theirs). Even a ten minute stroll outdoors can lift our spirits. Why is that? Simply put, being outdoors allows our energy - including our emotions - to ground and balance in the earth, as nature intended.
We live in a world with an increasingly positive charge. That may sound a good thing - but it isn't. In places where there's a build up of positive ions, such as around computers, in traffic or polluted areas, we start to feel irritable, it's hard to focus and we get headaches and other symptoms of chronic stress. As we go through our day a build up of positive ions and electrosmog can cause us to become increasingly depleted in Earth's healthy magnetic energy. Consequences can include tight muscles, sluggish energy flow, tension and irritability.
Places rich in negative ions on the other hand, such as the seaside or pine forests allow us to relax - our spirits are uplifted and we feel refreshed. As we spend more time in wireless environments and less time in nature, the results of this imbalance can erode our enjoyment of life, including the quality of our sleep, and we may develop chronic symptoms that we're told we just 'have to live with'.
One way to combat this problem is to use a grounding or earthing mat. Earthing Revolution's lightweight, portable grounding mat which:
neutralises positive charges
connects you with the negative charge of the Earth
protects you from unhealthy electromagnetic fields
Just plug the mat into any earthed socket and put your bare skin on any part of the mat - now you too are earthed. You don't need to turn the socket on - you're not using power, you're groudning it. It's particularly helpful to put the mat across your bed and rest your feet on it at night, when we're especially vulnerable to unhealthy electromagnetic fields but you can also rest your feet or hand on it when using a device such as a phone or computer.

Clint made his first generation earthing products using silver thread woven into such things as fitted bed sheets and mats because silver conducts electricity but after a while our natural body oils cause the silver to oxidise so now he's created carbon-infused mats that are effective far longer.
These second generation products, distributed exclusively in the UK by Earthing Revolution include:
a universal earthing mat
a mattress cover
grounding flip flops
mouse pad kit
mouse pad kit
conductive socks
a chair mat
a pet pad
pillow case - king size
a yoga mat

'I've recently started using the Earthing Pillow combined with the Earthing sheet. I sleep well and in the morning my head feels clear, having been protected from the radiation of electrical devices next door. Thank you.' S. Ellis
As we sleep we make sense of the day's events, make connections, archive memories and release emotional reactions that we have suppressed when awake. Many anti-depressants work by suppressing REM sleep which is when we have our most vivid dreams. These REM cycles tend to become longer as the night goes on. This type of sleep is very reduced with anti-depressants and many people feel a bit 'numb' even in waking hours, as they feel disconnected from their feelings.
However we cannot skip emotional processing, so when we come off the drugs feelings simply return in an unpleasant backlog to be felt and experienced in a more intense manner - a phenomenon we call 'withdrawal symptoms'.

High Grade Nutritionals & Liquid Soil-Based Probiotics
Another obvious way to reduce pollution is to be careful of what we eat; to eat organically as well as locally and as in season as possible. Unfortunately intensive farming means that the soil is not always able to give us the range of nutrients it once could. This can result in a gut microbiome that is not as diverese as it nees to be to experince optimum health, digestion and immunity.
Supplements can ensure that we get what we need but there are pharmaeutical grade nutritionals and food grade nutritionals which are made to different standards. This makes a big difference both to what the supplements actually contain, such as permitted 'fillers', as well as whether the supplement is in a form that your body can absorb. Some supplements pretty much go straight through you.
One source of high grade nutritionals and supergreens is Water for Health Please use the discount code karmacoach.
Another company that produces award-wining liquid soil-based probiotics is a family-run business in Wiltshire, UK called Microbz. Their probiotics are made from the soil of ancient meadows - rather than cultivating them in a lab or taking them from animals.
Many of their blends are brewed with herbs and minerals known to help vitality and energy levels and each is focused on a different health challenge such as:
'Breathe probiotics is an amazing product!! It helps a lot my 4 year old daughter with her asthma symptoms
She seems more happy and active than before using toxic inhaler'. Andrea C
'Detox probiotics is part of my daily routine - gives me confidence I’m helping my body inside out. Do feel energised and my night sweats are much better.' Paula C
''The best probiotics out there! I always come back to Revive after an illness or if I've had to take antibiotics. These are the best probiotics to have if you're new to them....I cannot recommend them enough.' Leigh C
'My daughter suffers from constipation, I thought I'd try Kids probiotics on her. A year later and she hasn't taken her medication once. I'm really pleased this works for her' Sarah P
Personally I often check suitability of products with a kinesiologist. Many kinesiologists carry samples of different brands which they can test on you and some companies will send you samples for testing.
In recent years there's been a lot of research into the impact of our environment and pharmaceuticals on the microbiome in our gut. The health of our microbiome is the cornerstone of our mental, emotional and physical health. Our gut is where we produce the majority of seratonin that helps to uplift our mood and it's where chronic inflammation can start, which underlies almost all disease.
Scientific progress means microbiome testing is now much more detailed and widely available. There are three main ways of testing your microbiome: a PCR test to look for specific pathogens, a16S test which tests via your DNA and gives an overview of your whole gut, and metabolic sequencing which goes in-depth and is the most costly option.
If you'd like to get an idea of the diversity of your microbiome a 16S test from Biomesight:
Identifies the key imbalances in your microbiome
Matches you to the most potent active ingredients personalised to you
Shows you which foods to increase and reduce to rebalance your gut
Finds your best matches from over 20,000 market leading products
The Biomesight website also has links to sample test results so you can see what you'll get.
Creams, shower gels and moisturisers are absorbed through your body's largest organ - your skin - so choose pure natural ingredients such as Neals Yard Organic. There are all sorts of hidden ingredients in toiletries that sound innocuous but are actually harnful such as 'mineral oil' as well as the more obvious ones such as aluminium salts found in talcum powder and anti-perspirants as well as petro chemicals used in creams and cosmetics such as parabens and sodium laurel sulphate.
Personally I'd always check suitability of nutritionals or skin care products with a kinesiologist. Many kinesiologists carry samples of different brands which they can test on you and some companies will send you samples for testing.
I love the Neal's Yard Organic range because it's ethical, cruelty -free and sustainable as well as beng effective and smelling gorgeous:).They support bee health and many of their ingredients, such as frankincense, are sourced in small communites in developing countries where they enable people - particularly women - to become financially empowered.
